Teaching EDEX 616 Educational Procedures for Students with Learning Disabilities Spring 2016

In this course, I plan to teach my students to use several SIM learning strategies.  After teaching, students will choose one or more of these strategies to teach a student or students.  They will provide a portfolio with evidence of their teaching the strategy.  The portfolio will include evidence of each stage of their teaching, including the pre and post test, lesson plan, etc.  The completed portfolio will include: 1) introduction that includes description of student(s), instructional setting, etc.; 2) initial assessment data and rationale for strategy selection; 3) lesson plans for teaching strategy; 4) self evaluation form; 5) final assessment of student performance; 6) all materials prepared for lessons; 7) all student work; and 8) project summary and reflection.  Submission of the portfolio will be part of their grade for the course.  Students will also have 2 exams which will have questions pertaining to the strategies they have been taught in class.

For submission of my evidence of teaching these strategies, I will provide a copy of my syllabus, showing that I have taught the strategies.  I will also submit a copy of a student's portfolio.  I will be happy to provide any other evidence necessary to receive this credential.
